Not sure what to say?

So sorry to hear about Dr Getz. He was such a wonderful Doctor and friend.
My mom Vivian Kaplan looked him up.
So sorry for his loss.

My sincerest condolences to Buddy's family. Buddy and I went to high school together and he was my "big brother" at AEPi fraternity at Emory. He was a friend for a long time. This is a sad day indeed. Warren Lieberman

We enjoyed knowing Dr. Getz(Buddy) as our neighbor on 80th Street. He was a kind man and a great neighbor. We lost my Dad (Ken Kniskern) 3 weeks ago. They were both true gentlemen.
Our sympathy to the Getz Family.

I loved buddy. He will be in my heart forever. My thoughts are with you and yours carol

Dr. Getz was a great, brilliant and compassionate human being. It was a pleasure working with him. We will miss him.

I will never forget Buddy being generous and helpful being instrumental to my going to Miami Jewish when I needed help. I will always be indebted to him for his advice in guiding my decisions back to health. I know so many will miss him. My condolences Carol.

Dear Carol,
John and I will miss Buddy - he was our good friend and our best doctor. He set us both on a path to healthy living and enriched our lives with his kindness and loving spirit. No one could ask for any better friend.

Buddy Getz was a persona larger than life, a syncretism of brilliant physician, compassionate administrator, loyal husband, devoted father, interested neighbor, a man's man--in the best senses of that term. Buddy will be missed by all whose lives he touched. Carol, we cannot be with you now, but we hope to share some tears and smiles within the next few weeks.

Dear Carol, Debbie, Julian, Jacob and Mischka,
Nobody ever loved his wife, children and grandchildren more than Buddy did. And we could have never asked for any better a friend. Always there when we needed him... For anything at anytime. We will miss him so much. He was a man of very few words, but when he spoke people listened. His words meant so much. We were all lucky to have him in our lives. Now we will have to be content to savor so many wonderful memories. Time together in Miami,...
